Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 392: Chapter 392: Brother, Are You a Dragon Raiser?

After entering the Divine Land, Ye Yun did not first go to Skyreach Island in The Ninth Sea Area. Instead, he tore through the void, continually advancing toward the Daluo Region. The Daluo Region, adjacent to the First Sea Region, had a long coastline, a vast territory, and was filled with countless factions, both large and small. Ye Yun had once extracted Jiang Hengyue’s memories, so he was quite certain of the Daluo Region’s direction.

The Nether Blood Green Wooden Dragon was greatly shocked. His master had been tearing through the void continuously from Cangnan Continent all the way to the Divine Land. He whispered to Ye Yun, ”Master, you’ve been constantly tearing through the void. Isn’t that draining too much mana? Shouldn’t we rest for a bit?”

”We will discuss it when we arrive,” Ye Yun replied with a smile, continuing to tear through the void.

Continuously tearing the void was a huge burden, even for him. Fortunately, he possessed the Ancestral Dragon Body and could still endure it. However, Ye Yun’s mana consumption was also immense.

After a while, Ye Yun tore the void once more and emerged with the Nether Blood Green Wooden Dragon. They had now entered the territory of the Daluo Region.

”We have arrived. This is the Daluo Region.” Ye Yun panted lightly, then swallowed a few pills and quickly recovered his mana.

”Master, the Daluo Region is so vast and teeming with people. Besides, a hundred thousand years have passed. How are we going to find anyone?” The Nether Blood Green Wooden Dragon looked around in bewilderment, completely clueless.

They currently stood atop a mountain peak, from where they could vaguely see the silhouette of a city in the distance.

”Let us go take a look at that city first,” Ye Yun said with a smile, pointing with his right hand toward a massive city in the distance.

Searching for Nangong Jade now was indeed like looking for a needle in a haystack. After all, a hundred thousand years had passed. Who knew what her current situation was? Ye Yun speculated that Nangong Jade might have had backing from some power within the Divine Land. However, a hundred thousand years was an incredibly long time. If Nangong Jade had not managed to break through to the Divine Monarch Realm, it was unlikely she would still be alive. Although their journey had been rushed, Ye Yun’s heart gradually calmed now that they had arrived in the Daluo Region.

”Master, tearing through the void was very strenuous for you. How about I carry you from now on?” the Nether Blood Green Wooden Dragon suddenly suggested.

”Very well,” Ye Yun replied with a slight smile, not refusing the offer.

The Nether Blood Green Wooden Dragon transformed, becoming a green giant dragon tens of zhang long, hovering in mid-air. Ye Yun stepped onto his head and said with a light laugh, ”Let’s go!”

Carrying Ye Yun, the Nether Blood Green Wooden Dragon flew toward the distant city.

”Master, I have noticed that my speed has decreased here!” As he flew, the Nether Blood Green Wooden Dragon suddenly discovered this anomaly and was taken aback.

”The world of the Divine Land is of a higher order than Cangnan Continent. This means it is more stable, and the ambient pressure is greater. Therefore, it is quite normal for your speed to decrease,” Ye Yun explained with a laugh.

”So that is how it is. This world is truly terrifying! I, a mere First Level Eternal Realm Little Dragon, am just cannon fodder here, barely able to ensure my own survival from one day to the next,” the Nether Blood Green Wooden Dragon said dejectedly.

”Haha, rest assured. With me around, you will not be in any danger,” Ye Yun said, laughing heartily.

The Nether Blood Green Wooden Dragon was at the First Level of the Eternal Realm. In the Divine Land, where True Gods were everywhere, his cultivation level indeed seemed pitifully weak.

Just then, streaks of light began to fly rapidly from all directions toward the distant city. Ye Yun observed that many of them were True God Realm cultivators, though there were also a few God King Level Cultivators among them.

Just then, two beams of light descended from the sky, revealing two middle-aged men. One of them, a burly man, smiled at Ye Yun, clasped his fists in salute, and said, ”Brother, your Divine Dragon Mount is quite impressive, is it not?”

”And what might you two need?” Ye Yun asked, maintaining his composure with a faint smile.

”Fellow cultivator, it is said that a young dragon is soon to be auctioned in Yunxiao City up ahead. Could this be the one?” the middle-aged man inquired with a smile.

An auction for a young dragon? Ye Yun’s expression flickered, and a look of keen interest immediately appeared on his face. In the vast Divine Land, only the Dragon-rearing Clan continuously and diligently bred dragon eggs and various young dragons, handing them over to auction houses for sale. What impeccable timing! They had arrived just in time for a young dragon auction.Perhaps he might even have a chance to capture a Dragon Raiser.

Seeing that Ye Yun remained silent, the other middle-aged man beside him asked with a smile, ”Esteemed brother, could you be the legendary mysterious Dragon Raiser?”

Hearing this man’s question, Ye Yun could not help but laugh. ”Not at all, not at all. Fellow cultivators, you have mistaken me for someone else. I am just an ordinary Loose Cultivator, not any Dragon Raiser,” Ye Yun replied with a laugh.

Disappointment immediately showed on the faces of the two middle-aged men. If he were a Dragon Raiser, they would have wanted to befriend him. But if he was just a Loose Cultivator, then there was no need.

”Fellow cultivators, do you happen to know which auction house in Yunxiao City is auctioning the young dragon?” Ye Yun asked, clasping his fists.

”Is our fellow cultivator also interested in the young dragon auction? The largest auction house in Yunxiao City, the Jinyu Auction House, is responsible for this auction. It should be starting soon,” the burly middle-aged man on the left said with a smile.

”Indeed, I have some interest. If the opportunity arises, I would naturally like to bid for it,” Ye Yun replied with a smile. Now that he had encountered a member of the Dragon Clan, he naturally could not let it pass. He did not care in the slightest if this Divine Dragon, bred by a Dragon Raiser, had been tampered with in any way.

”Fellow cultivator, since you are but a Loose Cultivator, I would advise you to withdraw from this auction,” the other, more slender middle-aged man said. Seeing Ye Yun’s keen interest, he gave a wry smile and threw cold water on his enthusiasm.

Ye Yun was slightly taken aback. ”Fellow cultivators, are you perhaps suggesting my financial resources are insufficient?” Ye Yun feigned annoyance.

”Fellow cultivator, you misunderstand!” the slender middle-aged man said, his expression awkward as he waved his hands repeatedly. ”The main issue is that a prominent figure from a Divine Monarch Realm faction has come to Yunxiao City. He has made it clear he intends to acquire this young dragon as a gift for the Sky Ritual of the Jianyun Sect.”

A gift for the Sky Ritual of the Jianyun Sect? Ye Yun was momentarily stunned. What on earth was happening?A Sky Ritual... Could it be they intend to kill a dragon for it?

Seeing Ye Yun’s expression, the two middle-aged men exchanged a glance and could not help but chuckle lightly.

”Fellow cultivator, you are mistaken,” the burly middle-aged man explained with a smile. ”The Sky Ritual is not about killing a dragon to sacrifice to the heavens. It is because the Sword Sovereign of the Jianyun Sect is very fond of raising Divine Dragons. Therefore, many factions seeking favors from the Jianyun Sect will gift a young dragon.”

”Even if one does not have a young dragon, offering a Dragon Egg is also acceptable,” the slender middle-aged man added at this point.

”So that is how it is!” Ye Yun nodded, a look of sudden realization dawning on his face. So, in the Divine Land nowadays, has it become fashionable to give Dragon Eggs or young dragons as gifts?The Dragon Clan, once capable of contending with the Sacred Land Divines, had actually fallen to such a miserable state.It truly made one feel helpless and desolate.
